  • Talus (-4938, -3107)
  • Naboo (1019, -1508)
• Space PvP (Deep Space)

*Note: PvP hotspots vary from server to server. The above are the most likely locations you'll find PvP on all servers. Be sure to check your galaxy forums and the player event schedule for addition PvP locations and events.

Can I gain a full rank in one week?

Generally speaking, you can gain a rank a week up until Lieutenant, where after that it will be impossible to progress to the next rank within a week.
The most you can reasonably expect to progress in one week:

• Rank 1 to Rank 2 ~ 150% +
• Rank 2 to Rank 3 ~ 120% +
• Rank 3 to Rank 4 ~ 110% +
• Rank 4 to Rank 5 ~ 105% +
• Rank 5 to Rank 6 ~ 100% +
• Rank 6 to Rank 7 ~ 95%
• Rank 7 to Rank 8 ~ 55%
• Rank 8 to Rank 9 ~ 50%
• Rank 9 to Rank 10 ~ 45%
• Rank 10 to Rank 11 ~ 40%
• Rank 11 to Rank 12 ~ 35%

*Note: Some of these values may be very inaccurate and will vary depending on how much GCW you earned. This is just to give you a rough idea as to how far you can progess in a week.

What is a TEF?

TEF stands for "Temporary Enemy Flag". A TEF is placed on you anytime you attack a player or NPC of the opposing faction. It prevents you from entering both public and private player structures. However, you can still enter non player structures such as starports while you have a TEF. TEFs usually last a couple minutes.

Why can't I place my factional base?

You must be either combatant or SF to place a factional base. Furthermore, each planet has a cap on the number of bases it can hold. This cap is the total of Imperial and Rebel bases combined. You are also limited to 3 bases per character. Only three bases can be in the same 1000m area.

Do my "old" faction base deeds work?

There actually is no "old" base. All base deeds will work the same way regardless of how old they are.

What is this diminishing returns formula?

The current formula used for calculating your progress each week is known as a diminishing returns formula. As the amount of points you gain increases, they will have less of an impact on your progress. For example, if you earned 10,000 GCW points in one week, the first 1,000 points earned would progress you 10%. The last 1,000 points would only progress you an additional 1% as opposed to 10% due to diminishing returns.

What's so special about Restuss?

Restuss is a unique PvP battleground introduced as high level content for players. In additional to PvP, it hosts a variety of PvE quests which are rewarded with commendations. Commendations can be turned in for special factional armor and weapons.

Are faction points still useful?

Rebel and Imperial faction points now function is much the same was as any other faction points function. They are used to determine how an NPC may react to you.

What are commendations used for?

Commendations are rewarded after completing various factional quests in Restuss. These commendations are used to "buy" rewards from the commendations officer which include special factional armor and weapons.

Where can I get factional armor?

There are 3 sets of both Imperial and Rebel armor that you can purchased from an armorsmith on your server. These suits cannot be purchased from a recruiter and only a master armorsmith can obtain the schematics from a recruiter.
There are also two factional armor suits that can be obtained

• Crusader Armor - Can be purchased with factional commendations. (More Info below)
• Factional Special Ops Officer Armor - Can be purchased from a factional recruiter at rank 9 and 10.

Player Bases

Player bases can be obtained either from factional recruiters, through loot drops or are granted as rewards for completing quests obtained from Vader or Luke Skywalker. The bases can be placed anywhere normal player structures are placed, and do not require lots. A total of three bases can be placed per character.
PvE Bases

• Mines and turrets can be added
• Always Vulnerable
• Countdown cannot be stopped
• Attackable by SF and Combatant players

SF Bases

• Only mines can be added. Currently cannot have turrets
• Have specific vulnerability times
• Countdown can be stopped
• Attackable by SF players only.

Vulnerability Timers

• SF bases have what's known as a vulnerability timer, which is a three hour time period where the bases is vulnerable to destruction.
• When a SF base isn't vulnerable, none of the terminals required for base destruction will exist. These terminals appear only when the base is vulnerable.
• You can also check to see if a base is vulnerable via the planetary map. Vulnerable SF bases will have a sun icon next to them, and base that is not vulnerable will have a crescent moon next to them.
  • Note: This applies to SF bases only. PvE bases are always vulnerable and always have a crescent moon icon.
• SF bases are vulnerable 3 hours every 2 days.
• A base will be vulnerable if the timer is between:
  • 3 Days, 21 Hours, 0 Minutes and 3 Days, 23 Hours, 59 Minutes
  • 1 Day, 21 Hours, 0 Minutes and 1 Day, 23 Hours, 59 Minutes

Destroying a Base

Professions Needed to Destroy Bases:

• Medic
• Bounty Hunter
• Officer
• Commando
• Smuggler

To destroy a base a series of 5 terminals must be sliced. Once all five terminals are sliced the base will go into a 10 minute countdown. The procedure is as follows:

1. Jam the Uplink Terminal . You must be a bounty hunter. To jam this terminal you need to select a bandwidth between 1 and 10. As you choose numbers you will be told if you need to go higher or lower. After the correct bandwidth is chosen, you must choose a channel. To find the channel you repeat the same process you used to find the correct bandwith.*
2. Slice the Security Terminal . You must be a smuggler to slice this terminal. To slice the terminal simple summon the radial menu and hit slice.
3. DNA Sequence the Override Terminal . You must be a medic to use this terminal. This is definitely the most challenging terminal to use. There is a total of 23 letters displayed that need to be matched with letters from the sample string. The letter A needs to be matched with the letter T and vice versa. The letter C needs to be matched with the letter G and vice versa.
4. Switch Alignment of the Power Regulator . You must be a commando to use this terminal. Your goal is to get all the switches to an off position. To accomplish this you will need to flip the various switches which will in turn flip one or more switches.
5. Active Overload at the Primary Terminal . You must be an officer to use this terminal. To activate the overload terminal simply select activate overload from the radial menu.
6. Countdown Initiated . The base will blow up after 10 minutes. If you're destroying a SF base you will need to guard the base from the opposing factional who has the ability to abort the countdown. If countdown is aborted, the officer will need to activate the overload again.

*Note: All terminals must be sliced in order.
**Note: Some bases are occasionally bugged and may be missing one or more terminals. If you base is missing a terminal, don't worry! Just move onto the next terminal.
***Note: If you are attempting to slice a SF base and none of the terminals are present, then the base is not vulnerable.
Base Defenses

The Corvette

The Corvette is a high level instance which takes somewhere out in space aboard a Coriellan Corvette.

For the destroy mission your goal is to blow up the corvette by choosing specific settings on a couple terminals. For the assasination mission you must kill a high level officer. For the rescue mission you must rescue two prisoners.
It is possible to solo the Corvette although you benefit by taking a group with you as you will complete it fast. Once you board the Corvette you will have 60 minutes to complete your mission, after which time you will be ejected.
The Corvette is also a great place to earn GCW points. Each run yields about 500 points and with a full group can be completed in as little as 10-15 minutes. If every person in your group has a ticket you can do 8 runs in less than 2 hours which would yield about 4000 GCW points.

The GCW Point System and Planetary Control

The Galactic Civil War Point System is based off of planetary control points you can earn via killing opposing NPCs and declared players. Each planet has it's own unique planetary control standing. The planets which planetary control points can be scored on are: Tatooine, Lok, Dantooine, Coriella, Talus, Naboo and Rori.
To Score Planetary Control Points:

• Kill a declared player of the opposing faction. One point will be awarded after the player is killed.
• Kill 25 NPCs belonging to the opposing faction. You must be special forces in order to gain credit.
• The scores on each planet will decay at an hourly rate, so you must stay active in order to maintain a high planetary standing.

To check the Planetary Control Score:

• Speak to a recruiter to find out the planetary standing on a specific planet

Rewards for Controlling a Planet

• Cheaper factional rewards - Items can be purchased from a recruiter at a cheaper price depending on the ratio of the Rebel Score to Imperial Score and vice versa. The faction with the higher score will recieve items at a discounted price of up to one third the "base" cost of items.
• Factional NPCs of the faction which has the higher planetary score will occupy non faction aligned cities on that planet. The NPCs will increase in difficulty if as the ratio increases.

Faction Aligned Cities

Rebel Mission
Converse with a Rebel Coordinator, they will tell you to see an Information Officer first. These are found within the guild halls in the same city as the Coordinator.
The Information officer will assign you a couple simple delivery missions. Once you have completed the missions you can go back and talk to the Rebel Coordinator.
The Rebel Coordinator will you about Dead Eye and Jabba's connection to it. You need to steal it from his people. You may need positive Jabba Faction in order to do the mission.
The Rebel Coordinator will give you a waypoint on either Yavin4, Endor or Dathomir. The waypoint will always be 8190, 8190 no matter which planet you get.
When you approach the target NPC, you must answer all the questions correctly or they will aggro on you. If you kill him, you have to go back to the Rebel Coordinator to get a new waypoint.

Answer 1: I work for Jabba. Answer 2: Whatever makes me the most money.

The NPC ends the conversation and you must converse with them again.

Answer 1: What do you do for fun? Answer 2: Yes, lots of money to be made at that game.

The NPC ends the conversation and you must converse with them again.

Answer 1: I love playing Sabacc. Answer 2: Random Sabacc.

The NPC ends the conversation and you must converse with them again.

Answer 1: What is it? Answer 2: Err... Yeah I'm great at fixing things.

"You have been given a grav unit repair kit."
Go to the Contact Caravan Leader Waypoint, which should be nearby and talk to the NPC.

Answer 1: Yes. I'm here to make the repairs.

" You have been given a broken grav unit." Bring up the radial menu on the repair kit and choose repair. "You have repaired the 100 GU Grav Unit."
Talk to the NPC again.

Answer 1: Yes, here it is.

"You have been given a data disk."
Go back to the Rebel Coordinator and they will send you to go and speak to the Rebel Tactical Officer in the nearby Guildhall.

Answer 1: I'd be happy to help.

Your target has been located on Endor (or Yavin IV, Endor, Lok or Dathomir).
Again, you are given a random advanced planet and the waypoint 8190, 8190. You should see 7 NPC's in and around a small building. After you kill them, enter the building. In the back room is a drum with Alderaan Flora. After looting the flora, click on the Data Terminal and set it to Self-Destruct.
You have 30 seconds to exit the building...
Return to the Tactical Officer and converse with him. You should recieve 50 Rebel FP for each flower you drag onto the Tactical Officer. It looks like you can now do the previous mission as many times as you want, and each time you hand him flora he will award you with faction. Now return to the Rebel Coordinator and converse.

Answer 1: I'm up for anything.

You should get a waypoint either on Dathomir, Endor, Yavin IV or Lok. Upon arriving, you will see Princess Leia and a few other Rebel NPC's around a camp. Converse with Princess Leia.

Answer 1: What's going on? Answer 2: What is the enemy doing?

You are given a nearby waypoint called "Protect Research Facility". The bases should be at one of the following places: Lok (-4753, 3516), Dantooine (6877, 2253), Endor (4021, 2970), Dathomir (-48, 86) or Yavin 4 (-4238, 2277). At the waypoint is a large building surrounded by 8 Rebel NPC's. You must defend the base from 3 waves of Storm troopers.
Reward: 750 FP and the Act 3 Cries of Alderaan Badge



What is known:

There have been significant changes to the GCW points to Rank Progress formula.

The new formula uses diminishing returns from the start instead of at a pre-set limit. In a diminishing return formula, your first point is worth more than your last. Thus gaining 1000 GCW points in one week will yield less than 500 points in two consecutive weeks.

The Rank decay values for officers are consistent from week to week. The target GCW point values for each rank are in the following table. Any GCW points past these marks will be converted into progress. The cap of 40% rank loss per week remains.

7. 7500
8. 8200
9. 9000
10. 10200
11. 12000
12. 15000


Regarding rank decay, if you are at rank 7, and rank decay causes you to drop back to enlisted rank, your new enlisted rank will be at the highest possible enlisted rank (i.e. rank 6, 99% progress to rank next rank). At this highest possible enlisted rank, if you just earn 1 GCW point during the following week, when the rank update occurs, you will be promoted to rank 7.

Does that mean if I'm say Rank 8, then once I get 8200 points I don't have any decay that week?

Yes

So basicly decay would be 8200 or 40% whatever is lower, after adding my earned gcw points?

No. Whatever GCW points you earn is converted to an equivalent rank progress first. Rank decay is then subtracted from the converted rank progress, and whatever rank progress is left (which could be negative if you did not earn enough GCW points to offset rank decay) is applied to your current rank, % progress to next rank to get a new rank, % progress to next rank.

The 8200 means that if you are at rank 8, then the converted rank progress for 8200 GCW points is enough to completely negate rank decay. If you have fewer than 8200 GCW points, then you will suffer rank decay based on how many points you are short of the 8200 break-even point. Because the conversion formula is non-linear, the nearer you get to the 8200 break-even point, the less and less rank decay you suffer because you did not reach the 8200 break-even point.

The 40% is an upper limit on the maximum decay that you can suffer because you did not reach the 8200 break-even point.


What is not (yet) know: The actual formula used in modifying the officers rank progress.

[Brock Sherwood]

one thing on the officer items that can be bought via recruiters - check each planet first before you buy - the reason is prices vary depending on who holds the planet - if its Rebel controled prices will be very low if you are a Rebel
